- I travelled lighter, diving with a single cylinder of nitrox and a solitary camera, and I was able to head off down to the wreck the moment we arrived at the site.
- I later ask Terry about oxygen, nitrox and helium.
- If you dive twins best bring them with you, air is free and all the boats pump nitrox at an extra cost.
- A maximum depth of 44m at highwater slack makes nitrox a good idea for decompression safety.
- What they could do with is nitrox - not least the guides themselves, who have to make preliminary dives to check out the currents.

- Using nitrox to reduce your nitrogen content offers these advantages.
- On the huge dive deck, everyone has a big locker under a bench seat, with his or her cylinder charged in situ with air or nitrox via a hard-plumbed system.
- I found diving on air very limiting, and when I return I'll be taking nitrox for my second dive.
